Desperately need to sell

This has been a crazy summer. 2 years ago I was married and living in my dream house. 1 year ago I was divorced, and moved back in with my parents. A month after I moved into my parents I decided to start looking at houses. ( First mistake). I found a house, spent alot of money and moved in. The house has been nothing but a nightmare. I lost my job, and took a crappy job just to pay the mortgage. Back in May I did some work to the house and I decided to put the house up for sale and see what happens.

3 full price offers on day one. I couldn't believe it. My realtor is new, kinda a friend of mine, and I felt like we were accomplishing something.

Here we are today, the buyer couldn't get financing. I'm scared and nervous. Sometimes I feel my realtor cares other times I don't know what to think.

Here is my dilemma.

The people that own the house behind me, also own the house next to them. I was able to get into contact with them and they told me they can offer me cash for the house, and close quickly.

I am going to talk to them more tonight, but if all goes well, I decided this is what I want to do. I told them we don't need to use realtors , and Aldo gave them a little lower price, the house needs some work,and they know it. It would make it equal to what I would get if they I went through a realtor with, either way it's equal for me.

I was thinking of talking to my realtor and asking her to release the contract. I don't think she will be a jerk, but you never know. I just want to get this done. And this part of my life behind me.

Am I able to fire her, and sell house on my own? Should I ask her ? What should I do?

Thank you

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
